🗓️ Date: October 16
⏰ Time: 5:30pm
📍 Location: Louis’

Everyone’s welcome—bring friends. Let’s keep Saskatchewan strong and informed.

The USSU Teaching Excellence Awards recognize professors and Teaching Assistants who demonstrate teaching excellence at the University of Saskatchewan. An excellent teacher not only gives us access to knowledge but also gives us the tools to turn that knowledge into wisdom. Students evaluate teachers and their environment in a number of ways; three important areas include enthusiasm, organization, and fairness of evaluation. These aspects culminate in an environment where students feel free to explore, critique, grow, and become leaders.

Do you have a Professor or Teaching Assistant who inspires you? Is your instructor passionate about teaching? Do they go that extra mile to ensure you succeed?

Nominate them for a Teaching Excellence Award!

Nominations are open from October 15-27.
